The Jackbox Party Pack 5

This is a collection of party games which you can play with others using your phone and the Jackbox website.
In my opinion the highlights of this pack are Split the Room and Patently Stupid games. In Split the Room you basically write a word which would make a decision most divisive for the players in the party. It’s an interesting game idea and in my opinion it works most of the time, although you need some creativity to think ahead. In Patently Stupud you can basically invent a device for a specific problem, draw it on a “napkin” and even present it to the others in the lobby, who can invest in your device. You win if you get the most investments from the other players, and I must say this game is really fun, although it works the best if you could present it properly to the others as well.
There is Zeeple Dome where you basically fling yourself to aliens to take them out. This is unique in the Jackbox, as you can play it alone too and the gameplays is more action packed. For me, it’s not bad but not my favourite, although playing with others could be good fun, if someone doesn’t change the difficulty to Hard for the first time to troll the lobby.
For me You Don’t Know Jack: Full Stream and Mad Verse City are the least favourite games in this pack. To be fair, this version of YDKJ is actually better from the other YDKJ games to play, this is basically a quiz game with some additional but alright gameplay elements. The problem is, there are quite a lot of questions which are hard to answer for a European, where me and most of my friends are from. Mad Verse City is a game of writing bars either against each other or in general. This could be a fun game if you or the others in the group can write something which rhymes but usually it’s not a popular choice to play this one.
Opinions may different about these games, different groups can like different games, but these are my opinions about them. Either way, I think The Jackbox Party Pack 5 is a quite good and colorful pack, you can find all kinds of party games to enjoy, and I can recommend giving it a go. 30€ is quite a strong price for it, I would get it for around 8 - 10 €.

Gene won due to the game cheating, so me and my friends ran a train on his wife. Then proceeded to skin gene alive. 10/10 would run a train on his wife again. (Great game all jokes aside)

patently stupid and mad verse are goated but i've never seen anyone genuinely play the other three.

Split the Room is so good! It became an instant favorite to play with family and friends. Mad Verse City is the other standout for me as it became a fun diss-track exchange once everyone understood how it all worked.

The best games in this pack are Split The Room and YDKJ. Zeeple dome plays less like a party game and more as something that you would sit down on the couch and play with a single friend. Split The Room is by far the best part of this pack (due to player input) and You Don't Know Jack is a lasting format that hasn't failed yet. Mad Verse City is good, however the game lacks some polish and the Text-to-Speech is poor. Patently stupid is fun, though in terms of drawing games i would say Drawful, Bidiots, and Tee-KO all outrank it.

Mad Verse City is the only game worth your time in this one, and it really depends on your players whether you're having a good time.

I still don't know Jack, it's a solid pack though!
You Don't Know Jack is a faithful version of YDKJ for a Party Pack (I still liked 2015 being adapted from YDKJ 2011 for Pack 1 , but for those reading this , this is You Don't Know Jack adapted as a Party Pack game. )
Split The Room is Jackbox's take of Twilight Zone- which admittedly, I love as a show originally, but it's a good game- as long as you actually split the room, or not.. sometimes it's fun to just not.
Mad Verse City is okay, a bit weaker than the other games above, but it's somewhat like drawful where , at least from my experiences, the fun is from the lack of ability to rap at times, or maybe I just suck at the game. It's a decent game to spice things up.
Zeeple Dome? Zeeple Dome. It's a good game, it's a TERRIBLE Jackbox game. So if in some universe you could play this without going to Jackbox.tv- I'd pay them $60 , but for this... I'd suggest not.
Patently Stupid is insanely good- try to pitch ideas and see what sticks: the game.
One other note, easter eggs are crazy in this pack in particular- if you're one of those people who like the YDKJ name easter eggs, they are here. If you wonder if the phone numbers work here- they do. That's worth a lot for some people, and i'm one of those people. Overall, solid pack for the price.
